Dual-band router touts 1200Mb/s WiFi speed NETGEAR Inc. has introduced the R6100 WiFi router, which is a dual band router that supports combined WiFi speeds up to 1200Mb/s with Fast Ethernet wired connections. According to the firm, the solution offers secure and reliable Internet connections for fast downloads, clearer voice calls, uninterrupted HD video and lag-free gaming. The NETGEAR R6100 WiFi router claims to provide enhanced features for improving home theater experience and prepares home networks for new or upgraded devices that integrate 802.11ac WiFi support such as the MacBook Air and smartphones such as the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One. The router offers improved performance and whole-home wireless coverage by incorporating simultaneous dual band WiFi technology, indicated NETGEAR. The 2.4GHz band supports legacy devices while the less interference-prone 5GHz band is perfect for multiple HD media streaming and online gaming. Moreover, the R6100 works with the free NETGEAR genie app and software for easy installation and network management, ensuring you a hassle-free transition to 802.11ac. The new 802.11ac wireless standard is the world’s fastest WiFi, providing Gigabit WiFi speeds so you can download web content faster and synchronizes large video or music files more quickly, noted the company. The increased speed of 802.11ac technology is ideal for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets by providing up to three times the performance for a similar amount of battery consumption of devices using the current 802.11n WiFi standard. The genie is a free app for PC, Mac, iOS and Android smartphones and tablets that enables you to control, monitor, repair and manage your home network easily through a simple, elegant dashboard. The NETGEAR MyMedia provides the ability to find photos, video or music files anywhere on the network and play them on any DLNA media player. Additionally, the support for AirPrint enables you to print to any USB or networked printer directly from an Apple iPad or iPhone. The guest network provides Internet access but prevents other people from seeing and accessing your household’s computers, printers, storage devices and other home network devices. In addition, the NETGEAR EZ Mobile Connect enables your guests’ smartphones or tablets to connect to your home WiFi network, simply by scanning the QR code from the genie WiFi screen without typing in security keys or SSIDs. With NETGEAR ReadySHARE USB Access, you can wirelessly access and share USB hard drives via the USB port, added the firm. The router is DLNA-ready and can stream to any DLNA-compatible device in your house, including the latest smart TVs, Blu-ray players, media players, game consoles, handheld devices, tablets and more. Likewise, the NETGEAR Live Parental Controls is a centralized, flexible and reliable parental control solution for all the devices on the network, including Macs, PCs, smartphones and tablets, for a safe online environment for children and teenagers. No subscription is required. The router comes with wireless security turned on out-of-the-box, complete with a pre-configured network name and password, protecting home WiFi networks by default. There’s no CD required, so you can set up the router with smartphones, tablets, ultrabooks and even a MacBook Air.
